IPL teams performance in the playoffs

Rajasthan Royals

Rajasthan Royals was the team to beat in IPL 2008

Starting off the competition with a tag of underdogs, Rajasthan Royals stunned everyone by crushing many fancied teams and eventually emerge as the champions of IPL's inaugural season. After a rip-roaring start to their IPL journey, the men from Rajasthan grew off-color as they failed to make it to the final four in the next four editions. They, however, bounced back and made it to the playoffs in 2013 and 2015.

In the eleventh edition of IPL, RR has been quite inconsistent, to say the least. Senior pros, such as Ajinkya Rahane and Ben Stokes, who were expected to be the side's mainstays, have failed to deliver thus far. Currently, the Ajinkya Rahane-led side has to win all its remaining games to stay in contention of making it to the final four.
